Quang Binh Province to open new pedestrian street
The 1km pedestrian street will open from 6 pm to 12 am on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays as well as holidays and special occasions. This is a part of a series of events held during Dong Hoi Culture Week from April 23 to May 2. Other events and activities include street carnival, boat race, and street music show.
It is estimated that 800-1,000 people visit Phan Boi Chau and Dong Hai streets every night for shopping, eating and other activities. The local authorities have also encouraged and guided local people to switch to more popular products and services.
Hoang Thi Thanh Nhung, vice chairwoman of Dong Hoi People's Committee said, "The infrastructure is completed and we have decorated and prepared everything. Our aim is to develop a night tourism experience in the city centre. We'll continue reviewing and adjusting to improve the services. There will also be traditional games along with other street performances."
